how do you wear your camera, not a poll

Thanks, William. I did not realize he would fit them with the other straps, as well. I will definitely look into it. 🙂

I've been sitting here reading about various of you all wrapping neck straps around, apparently, either your wrist or forearm. So I've been trying various ways, inevitably getting the damn strap wrapped in such a way that 1) circulation is impaired. Better the forearm than the brain, I always say. or 2) a huge tangled mess that either obscures the front of the viewfinder or crosses the eyepiece.

My girlfriend, unbeknownst to me, stood in the doorway, apparently for a few minutes watching my various attempts, then asked if I needed medical attention.

I think I'll stick to a wrist strap and a dirty brown bag.

Jamie Oliver style... naked photographer. I carry the camera without straps they are too fiddly.

Yep, I asked about a wrist strap shortly after I got my case & strap for the Canon 7. I think one would work well on the CL or even the Contessa. Hopefully I'll have the $$$ to actually order one sometime this century :bang: 😱 😀

well...you'll have the case and strap that comes w/ the cl if i could just get off my butt!! the strap that comes with it isn't horrible.

I'll be happy to give it a workout then 🙂 Don't worry, I know you'll get it out when you can and the strap I'm using is a $0.25 ex-P&S strap 😀 so no big investment.

Neck straps always seem to be in the way of my hands or the viewfinder, so never around my neck. Usually I just wrap the strap around my hand a couple of times, at least until I remember to order a couple of Luigi straps.

3. Someone needs to come up with a good replacement for those little strap rings..

Pentax did, on the LX, 645 and 67, but this nice solution isn't applicable to a camera with conventional lugs. Luigi's spring-clip is intriguing, but would certainly need that large soft protector between it an the camer body.
